I would highly recommend Rachel Adams at DFA Law. She is absolutely fantastic and made my divorce process as painless as possible. She treated me with compassion and understanding which was very welcome while going through such a stressful time. I also used DFA for my conveyancing (buying and selling) and would also highly recommend this service. A great team of Solicitors!
